How PRP works
A small amount of your blood is drawn and processed to create a concentration of platelets. Platelets are rich in growth factors, which play a vital role in healing and cell regeneration. The PRP is then applied to your skin and microneedled into the dermis. This process creates controlled micro-injuries that trigger your body's natural healing response, stimulating collagen and elastin production.
